"Is he dead?"

"I'm not sure... Touch him."

"You touch him "

"Should we tell Brian?"

Damon's mind swam. Am I dead? He coughed and opened his eyes. He was lying on his back, and the sky above him was bright and blue again. He squinted at the sun and covered his eyes with the back of his palm. His skin felt clammy and cold, and his arm felt almost heavy to move, like it was soaked with water. He could taste the salt in the air. He sucked in, trying to get a good breath, but he could still feel water in his lungs. He turned his head to the side, feeling like he was about to throw up. It was then that he became aware of the big furry orange face looking down on him.
